Safety features of your vehicle
Folding the rear seat
The rear seatbacks can be folded to
facilitate carrying long items or to
increase the luggage capacity of the
vehicle.To fold down the rear seatback:
1. Set the front seatback to the
upright position and if necessary,
slide the front seat forward.
2.Lower the rear headrests to the
lowest position.CAUTION
• Make sure the engine is off,
the transaxle is in P and the
parking brake is applied
whenever loading or unload-
ing cargo. Vehicle may move if
shift lever is inadvertently
moved to another position.
• Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger
seats to prevent damage to
the vehicle interior.
• When cargo is loaded through
the rear passenger seats,
ensure the cargo is properly
secured to prevent it from
moving whilst driving.
Unsecured cargo in the pas-
senger compartment can
cause damage to the vehicle
or injury to it’s occupants.
WARNING
The purpose of the fold-down
rear seatbacks is to allow you to
carry longer objects that could
not be accommodated in the
luggage compartment.
Never allow passengers sit on
top of the folded down seatback
whilst the vehicle is moving.
This is not a proper seating
position and no seat belts are
available for use.
This could result in serious
injury or death in case of an
accident or sudden stop.
Objects carried on the folded
down seatback should not
extend higher than the top of
the front seatbacks. Doing this
could allow cargo to slide for-
ward and cause injury or dam-
age during sudden stops.

What to do in an emergency
14 6
If you have a tyre gauge, check the
tyre pressure (see “Tyres and
Wheels” in chapter 8 for tyre pres-
sure instructions.). If the pressure is
lower or higher than recommended,
drive slowly to the nearest service
station and adjust it to the recom-
mended pressure. Always reinstall
the valve cap after checking or
adjusting tyre pressure. If the cap is
not replaced, air may leak from the
tyre. If you lose a valve cap, buy
another and install it as soon as pos-
sible. After changing tyres, secure
the flat tyre and return the jack and
tools to their correct storage loca-
tions.
✽NOTICE
Check the tyre pressure as soon as
possible after installing a spare tyre.
Adjust it to the recommended pres-
sure.
If any of the equipment such as the
jack, wheel nuts, studs, or other
equipment is damaged or in poor
condition, do not attempt to change
the tyre and call for assistance.
Use of compact spare tyres
(if equipped)
Compact spare tyres are designed
for emergency use only. Drive care-
fully on the compact spare tyre and
always follow the safety precautions.
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the studs and wheel nuts.
Make certain during tyre chang-
ing that the same nuts that were
removed are reinstalled. If you
have to replace your wheel nuts
make sure they have metric
threads to avoid damaging the
studs and ensure the wheel is
properly secured to the hub. We
recommend that you consult an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
WARNING
To prevent compact spare tyre
failure and loss of control pos-
sibly resulting in an accident:
• Use the compact spare tyre
only in an emergency.
• NEVER operate your vehicle
over 80 km/h.
• Do not exceed the vehicle’s
maximum load rating or the
load carrying capacity shown
on the sidewall of the com-
pact spare tyre.
• Do not use the compact spare
tyre continuously. Repair or
replace the original tyre as
soon as possible to avoid fail-
ure of the compact spare tyre.

Maintenance
FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bol-
ster, the other in the engine compart-
ment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will have melted.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver’s side
fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, dis-
connect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type and multi fuse for higher
amperage ratings.
✽NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label
may differ from equipped items.
WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
• Never replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
• A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly a
fire.
• Never install a wire or alumini-
um foil instead of the proper
fuse - even as a temporary
repair. It may cause extensive
wiring damage and a possible
fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove
fuses as it may cause a short
circuit and damage the system.
